Many Kershaw County farmers are j suffering a shortage of feed this j spring. A first cutting of Sudan grass hay has been secured in 43 days after planting and this ability to produce feed this quickly makes | Sudan grass an excellent crop for planting wh> re there is a shortage :>f I hay and other feed as is the case n many Kershaw county farms this i spring. Sudan grass can he planted any time in the early spring or summer] according to J. W. Sanders, County/ Agent, who states that planteiKeaiTy on good land three cuttings can be i secured. The plant is rank growing, often producing as many as fifty or more stems from one stool, which grow to a height of three to five feet or more. Seed may he sown broadcast or drilled. The former method requires about 20 to SO pounds of seed per acre, while fewer are required when drilled, 10 to 1" pounds. Sudan grass, which is closely re lated to the sorghums, is adapted to practically all soils of South C'aro j linn, hut like the majority of crops it will make the best growth on fer | Hie soil. The hay is easily cured and handle I and will compare favorably I with other grass hay. It is an ox ! fHl nt summer crop to pin nt after I small grain. Although i! looks very much like Johnson grass, Sudan grass has no undn grc und stems. Hencv there is no danger whatever of its becoming n pest, as all plants are killed by the first frost. 666 is n Prescription for ( Ol.DS, CKIIM'K, I'M , JMVNCIK, lltl. IOl'H FKV Kit AND MALARIA.

Suhsoribo to The Messenger. LIBERTY HILL HAPPEN INGS Mr. Eiitor: After several days of good ''working: weather" last week. Sunday was a rainy day with thunder and lightning accompanying. A slight error crept in our items last week. We said ? or meant to say ? "planting cotton", not "plowing cotton". We have not heard >f any I one being that far advanced yet! Mr. K. J. Wardlaw received by Ex press on Saturday a shipment of 40, 000 sweet potato plants. He is in touch with the S. C. Co-operative po tato association and expects to culti vate f) acres for the market. We hope that the venture along new lines of agriculture for this section will prove an abundant success. We have been informed ? through outside souro.-s ? of a big "fish fry" that was pulk* I off at the home of Mr. H. S. Higgin . one night last week. We hear that Mr. E. K. Hammond, a business man of Lancaster but a native of this c> mty distinguished himself by outdistancing his competitors in the amou it of "brain food" he could consunv . Ed's also a clever fellow and successful salesman. Mr. J. R. Johnston and daughter. Miss Clara, atended the golden wed ding of Mr. and Mrs. John C. McI>ow at the home of their son in the South Lancaster section one day last week. We are told that quite a large crowd of kinfolk and friends were present. Mr. Johnston and Mr. McDow are brothers-in-law. Mr. W. D. McDowall, a prominent citizen of the Knights Hill section, and two sisters, Misses Margaret and Susan, were recent visitors to rela tives at this place. Miss Josephine Wardlaw, popular young lady of Chester, who recently had her tonsils removed at a hospital there, spent few days at home last week with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Wardlaw. Mr. Lewis L. Moore, popular mus ician and music dealer of Camden, was here Saturday evening to deliver a piano. He was accompanied by Mrs. Moon and three little daughters for the trip. Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Johnston had as guests for a couple of days last we< k Mr. and Mrs. L. 15 at son and two children of Greenville. Mrs. Bats>?) and Miss Louise Johnston are close friend, having taught school togeth er in Greenville several years ago. and this visit of a former co-worker was greatly enjoyed. Mr. and Mrs. .1. H. Clements and two children were Camden visitors Gov. and Mrs. John G. Richards and daughters, Misses Rekah and Mildred, w< re week end visitors to their home here. Hon. X. S. Richards paid a visic to the Capital City last week. Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Stroupe were Kershr.w visitors one day last we.'k. C. ADJUSTING COTTON PRODUCTION TO MEET MILL REQUIREMENTS Spinners pny for the cotton tliey use on tl?e basis of its spinning utll- I ity. The higher the grade, the longer, I stronger and more uniform the staple, ' and the better the character of tho staple, the more they pay for it. Fn- ? fortunately, however, the premium , paid for the better cotton frequently ^ Is not passed on to the farmer, and the producer of the quality cotton Is j therefore not rewarded as he deserves. The need for the adjustment of ' production to meet the mill require ments is brought out by the Division of Cotton Marketing of the United States Department of Agriculture In reports Issued this season for the first i time, showing the classification by grade and staple length of the cotton crop of the I'.elt as a whole and for the several states. A recent report Indicates that of the cotton ginned up to February I". 1029, more than f.M per cent was short staple ? % Inch, 1" 10 inch and under in length. Con trast with these figures those of an other report which indicates that 84 per cent of the cotton consumed by domestic mills for the year ending August 1, 10", 8, consisted of about (?(pud parts of staples %, 15/10, and 1 to 1 l/Xli Inches. One of the objects of the National Cotter Show to be held this fall Is to stimulate Interest In production of better quality cotton to moot the re quirements of the mills. The show which is being sponsored by the Sears Roebuck Agricultural Foundation and the Soil Improvement Committee, The National Fertilizer Association, will bo belli in three sections, at the Trl-Slato Fair. Memphis, Tonn.; the Southeast ern Fair, Atlanta, On.; and the Ktato Fair of Texas. Dallas. I OR SAI.K OR RENT ? A good farm, | clay land, in Richland county, | known as the Sligh place.
